Trust Bit Sweet Iron Full Cheek Snaffle Dr. Bristol Copper Plate 16mm 11.5

Trust Bit Sweet Iron Full Cheek Dr. Bristol Copper Plate 16mm 11.5

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16 millimeters at its thickest point. So it is more of a medium-thick mouthpiece.

Comparative values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm, and particularly large warmbloods, cold bloods and Shire Horses rather 18mm and larger.

When choosing the bit thickness and size, pay attention to the anatomical conditions of the horse's mouth. You can use your fingers to test how much space there is between the tongue and palate.

The Trust Equestrian development team continuously works on innovative products to further optimize the design and function of bits. We would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Full Cheek Dr. Bristol Copper Plate 16mm 11.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail today:

The bit Trust Bit Sweet Iron Full Cheek Dr. Bristol Copper Plate 16mm 11.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with full cheeks as a sidepiece. The mouthpiece of this bit is a Dr. Bristol, meaning a plate as the center piece of a double jointed mouthpiece. The mouthpiece has a width of 11.5 centimeters.

Bit thickness

The mouthpiece size 11.5cm is usually ideal for thoroughbreds.

Sidepiece

Full Cheek

The full cheek bit lies very quietly and stably in the mouth. It ensures reliable lateral limitation, without the risk of pinching skin and lips due to the angled bars. This bit is suitable for horses that need clear lateral support and guidance when turning.

Mouthpiece

Dr. Bristol

The Dr. Bristol mouthpiece is a double jointed mouthpiece with a flat center piece. The center plate in a Dr. Bristol is angled and flat-edged. It mainly acts on the tongue with a sharp effect due to the straight, angled plate and with a smaller angle on the bars. This mouthpiece helps with strong horses.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits have been developed so that surface rust forms on contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore readily accept Sweet Iron bits.
